Secret Meeting Of Cattlemen.

DENVER, April 28.-The Republican
says R. G.. Head, Judd Brush. ex-
| Governor Routt, and several other
prominent cattlemen, held a secret
meeting at the Windsor Hotel yester-
day. The object of which is not yet
made public, but it is presumed in the
interest of some gigantic project in
| connection with the cattle industry.
A few weeks ago both Messrs. Head
and Routt were in New York and Chi
cago, working up the matter. The de-
tails of the project are vet to be I'M
| yelled. A prominent cattleman, in
| speaking on the subject this morning,
| said it was shrewdly suspected the
gentlemen were drafting a plan of cor
poration, something similar to the
| MCCLELLAN cooperative plan, which pro-
| posed to pool the entire cattle interest
OF the West, and which created 50
much discussion at the last session of
the International Range Association
held at Denver in February. 1t is fur
ther rumored that the scheme upon
which the gentlemen are working is to
control the beef market of the Dur
try, and that they have associated
with them n of the members of the
Dressed Beef Syndicate Of Chicago.
A vauIt and Safe Robbed.
CHICAGO, April 28.-The vault and
safe in the ship chandlery house Of G..
B. Carpenter & Co., Oh South Water
street, were drilled open early this
morning, and money and jewelry, ag-
gregating $11 900, was stolen. Seven
thousand dollars of the amount was in
cash or negotiable paper. The jew
elry belonged to members of the Car
penter family, and had been stored in
the business vault as a place of greater
safety than at home. All mention Of
the case was suppressed by the police
until tonight, in the vain hope that
some clue to the perpetrators would be
discovered. The door of the vault is
in plain view of the street. 1t is sup
posed the burglars timed their opera
ton on the vault door so as to do the
work between the routine visits of the
Waterman. Once the outside door
was opened, the criminals cooIly
shielded themselves behind its heavy
panels, and continued their nefarious
work during the early morning hours.
South Water street is almost absolutely
deserted except by the solitary watch
man.
An international Complication
Arises.
SAN ANTONIO, Texas, April 28.-
James Reed, the alleged murderer,
was captured here to-day. Two years
ago a United States soldier, in COM
pany with three citizens, murdered an
old jeweler named Block for his valu-
ables in Matamoras, Mexico. The
murderers we're captured and sen
fenced to be shot. Reed and Williams
escaped. They stole some fine horses
and recrossed into Mexico, and were
present at the execution Of their fell
lows in crime. Reed made his way to
| California, where, it is alleged, he
| committed numerous robberies and
has slain two men. An international
complication now arises. Mexico has
the sentence of death passed upon
him, and California wants him for
crime. He denies being the party
wanted, but the officers and soldiers
say they cannot be mistaken in this
case.
A woman Found Murdered.
DUBUQUE, To-, April Estate yes
terday afternoon the body of a woman.
apparently about 35 years of age, was
found four miles north of this city.
Her clothes were torn, and there were
several cuts on her head, and her
hands were cut as if grasping a knife
to prevent it injuring her. She was
recognized as Mrs. Barney Kennedy,
the wife OF q well-known dairyman.
Suspicion rested upon her husband, as
it is alleged the couple had frequent
and bitter quarrels, and this afternoon
he was arrested. Dried blood was
found upon his stockings, ON his coat,
and on the sleeves of his shirt, and
upon his vest and p%antaloons. When
asked for an explanation he refused to
talk.
Must Determine for Themselves.
ST.. LOUIS, April 2S.-In reply to a
request from the Sisters Of st. Joseph,
in this city, that railroads be author
lied to furnish them free Transporter
ton as heretofore, Chairman Cooley
the Interstate Commission writes
Railroad companies must determine
for themselves what shall be their
in granting favors to persons
engaged in religious works. The
in plain terms allows the giving
Of reduced rates to ministers of reli-
zion, and if they are given on the
same general and impartial rule, no
question of its legality could arise, and
40 railroad company could have oc-
,asion to fear penalties"
